Those wanting to use it should instead having to make an  informed

contain anything related to serial (no rxtx jar, no serial code) - the 
src package will contain the code of the serial project I'm fine with 
that if nobody object. -- Regards, Cordialement, Emmanuel Lécharny

FWIW there was some feature in Maven that conditionally downloads an
artifact after having the user approve the license. Perhaps we can take the
same steps for the rxtx.jar artifact?
